Look like your result is quite different from ours. I've entered the line into my own /etc/profile and I got the following:
Code:
export | grep -i http_proxy
export http_proxy="http://127.0.0.1/"
The only different are the quotes. You could try adding back the quotes, however at this point I recommend you not messing with it any further. You need to revert the change now.

1) Install leafpad
2) run the following in xterminal
Code:
sudo leafpad /etc/profile
3) remove the last two lines containing http_proxy
4) click on the top bar to drop down a menu where you could find 'Save'. Save the file
5) Exit the program
